Overview

an evening of readings from Danny Hayward and Fred Moten

In wildly enchanting tonal ranges and with deep commitment to the form of the poem—its disbandment and retention—Danny Hayward and Fred Moten write poetry as a practice of love and liberation. Never afraid to dwell in negation as a passageway to freedom, their work demands the dissolution of the self in order to arrive at a *we* that abandons the premises of a previous world. Reading them, we are in the presence of endlessly giving music—an offering made against the scarcity of the world, a model for being, listening, and coming together.
